[0028] (Example of form 1) The meeting participation system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system that improves work efficiency by reducing the time spent preparing for and attending meetings, by allowing participants to automatically join online meetings at the start time of the meeting. The meeting participation system synchronizes with the user's calendar and automatically displays notifications as the meeting start time approaches. For example, reminders pop up 10 minutes, 5 minutes, and 1 minute before the meeting to inform the user of the start of the meeting. After the reminder is displayed, the user can seamlessly join the meeting without clicking on a meeting link. For example, when the reminder is displayed, the user can automatically join the online meeting without any action required from the user. This mechanism reduces the time spent preparing for and attending meetings, thereby improving work efficiency. Furthermore, this mechanism improves meeting productivity. By avoiding the time spent manually searching for meeting links and technical problems, the time from the start of the meeting to getting to the main topic can be shortened. For example, meetings can start smoothly without being late for the scheduled start time. In addition, attendance and participation rates improve. Reminders and automatic participation functions reduce missed meetings and lateness, allowing all relevant parties to participate in all important meetings in a timely manner. This improves the quality of discussions and the speed of decision-making. The system automates meeting preparation time (checking links, logging into meeting tools, setting up cameras and microphones, etc.), eliminating the need for manual operation each time. For example, it can save 5-10 minutes per meeting, and companies that hold multiple meetings per week can expect to save hundreds of hours annually. As a result, meeting participation systems can reduce the time spent on meeting preparation and attendance, thereby improving work efficiency.

Furthermore, after the meeting, the unit can provide a report on emotional changes, which can be used to improve future meetings. This enables meeting management that considers participants' emotions, thereby increasing meeting productivity.

[0120] The following briefly describes the processing flow for example form 2.

[0121] Step 1: The data collection unit synchronizes with the user's calendar. The data collection unit can synchronize with, for example, a calendar. The data collection unit can select the appropriate synchronization method depending on the type of calendar. Step 2: The notification unit displays a notification based on the meeting start time obtained by the collection unit. The notification unit can display notifications in various ways, such as pop-up notifications, email notifications, and push notifications. As the meeting start time approaches, the notification unit can display reminders 10 minutes, 5 minutes, and 1 minute beforehand. For example, a pop-up notification will appear on the user's desktop screen. An email notification will be sent to the user's email address. A push notification will appear on the user's smartphone. Step 3: Participants automatically join the meeting based on reminders displayed by the notification unit. Participants can, for example, automatically launch the meeting tool and join the meeting without clicking a meeting link. Participants can automatically launch the meeting tool, log in, and configure camera and microphone settings. For example, a participant can obtain a meeting link and automatically launch the meeting tool. Once the meeting tool is launched, the participant can automatically configure the user's camera and microphone.

The data generation model 58 infers from the input inference data according to the instructions indicated by the prompts, and outputs the inference result in one or more data formats such as audio data, text data, and image data. The data generation model 58 includes, for example, text generation AI, image generation AI, and multimodal generation AI. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization. The specific processing unit 290 performs the specific processing described above using the data generation model 58. The data generation model 58 may be a fine-tuned model that outputs inference results from prompts that do not contain instructions, in which case the data generation model 58 can output inference results from prompts that do not contain instructions. In the data processing device 12, etc., there are multiple types of data generation models 58, and the data generation model 58 includes AI other than generative AI. AI other than generative AI includes, for example, linear regression, logistic regression, decision trees, random forests, support vector machines (SVM), k-means clustering, convolutional neural networks (CNN), recurrent neural networks (RNN), generative adversarial networks (GAN), or naive Bayes, and can perform various processes, but is not limited to these examples. Also, the AI ​​may be an AI agent. Furthermore, when the processing of each part described above is performed by the AI, the processing may be performed by the AI ​​in part or in whole, but is not limited to this example. Also, processing performed by an AI including a generative AI may be replaced by rule-based processing, and rule-based processing may be replaced by processing performed by an AI including a generative AI.

[0173] The data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment performs the same processing as the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment. The processing by the data processing system 410 is performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 or the control unit 46A of the robot 414, but it may also be performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 and the control unit 46A of the robot 414. In addition, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 acquires or collects information necessary for processing from the robot 414 or an external device, and the robot 414 acquires or collects information necessary for processing from the data processing device 12 or an external device.

[0174] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the collection unit, notification unit, participation unit, preparation unit, productivity improvement unit, and attendance rate improvement unit, is implemented by, for example, at least one of the robot 414 and the data processing unit 12. For example, the collection unit synchronizes with the robot 414's calendar application and acquires calendar information by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12. The notification unit displays pop-up notifications and push notifications by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and sends email notifications by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12. The participation unit automatically starts the meeting tool by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and acquires the meeting link by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12. The preparation unit automatically sets up the camera and microphone by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and logs into the meeting tool by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12. The productivity improvement unit shares the agenda in advance by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and manages timekeeping by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12. The attendance rate improvement unit displays a reminder via the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and provides an automatic participation function via the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12. The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the example described above and can be modified in various ways.

[0175] Furthermore, the emotion identification model 59, acting as an emotion engine, may determine the user's emotion according to a specific mapping. Specifically, the emotion identification model 59 may determine the user's emotion according to a specific mapping, which is an emotion map (see Figure 9). Similarly, the emotion identification model 59 may also determine the robot's emotion, and the identification processing unit 290 may perform identification processing using the robot's emotion.

[0176] Figure 9 shows the emotion map 400, in which multiple emotions are mapped. In the emotion map 400, emotions are arranged in concentric circles radiating from the center. The closer to the center of the concentric circles, the more primitive the emotions are located. Further out of the concentric circles, emotions representing states and actions arising from mental states are located. Emotion is a concept that includes feelings and mental states. On the left side of the concentric circles, emotions that are generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain are located. On the right side of the concentric circles, emotions that are generally induced by situational judgment are located. Above and below the concentric circles, emotions that are generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain and induced by situational judgment are located. In addition, the emotion of "pleasure" is located on the upper side of the concentric circles, and the emotion of "displeasure" is located on the lower side. Thus, in the emotion map 400, multiple emotions are mapped based on the structure in which emotions arise, and emotions that are likely to occur simultaneously are mapped close together.

[0177] These emotions are distributed at the 3 o'clock position on the Emotion Map 400, and usually fluctuate between feelings of security and anxiety. In the right half of the Emotion Map 400, situational awareness takes precedence over internal feelings, resulting in a calm impression.

[0178] The inside of the Emotion Map 400 represents inner thoughts, while the outside represents actions. Therefore, the further you go from the outside of the Emotion Map 400, the more visible (expressed in actions) your emotions become.

[0179] Here, human emotions are based on various balances, such as posture and blood sugar levels. When these balances deviate from the ideal, it results in discomfort, and when they approach the ideal, it results in pleasure. Similarly, in robots, cars, and motorcycles, emotions can be created based on various balances, such as posture and battery level. When these balances deviate from the ideal, it results in discomfort, and when they approach the ideal, it results in pleasure. The emotion map can be generated based, for example, on Dr. Mitsuyoshi's emotion map (Research on a system for analyzing brain physiological signals of speech emotion recognition and emotion, Tokushima University, doctoral dissertation: https: / / ci.nii.ac.jp / naid / 500000375379). The left half of the emotion map contains emotions belonging to a region called "response," where sensation is dominant. The right half of the emotion map contains emotions belonging to a region called "situation," where situational awareness is dominant.

[0180] The emotion map defines two emotions that promote learning. One is the emotion around the middle of the negative "repentance" and "reflection" on the situation side. In other words, it is when the robot experiences negative emotions such as "I never want to feel this way again" or "I don't want to be scolded again." The other is the emotion around the positive "desire" on the reaction side. In other words, it is when the robot has positive feelings such as "I want more" or "I want to know more."

[0181] The emotion identification model 59 inputs user input into a pre-trained neural network, obtains emotion values ​​representing each emotion shown in the emotion map 400, and determines the user's emotion. This neural network is pre-trained based on multiple training data sets, which are combinations of user input and emotion values ​​representing each emotion shown in the emotion map 400. Furthermore, this neural network is trained so that emotions located close together have similar values, as shown in the emotion map 900 in Figure 10. Figure 10 shows an example where multiple emotions such as "reassured," "calm," and "confident" have similar emotion values.

[0182] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which a specific process is performed by a single computer 22. However, the technology of this disclosure is not limited thereto, and a distributed processing method for the specific process may be used, which includes computer 22 and multiple other computers.

[0183] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which the specific processing program 56 is stored in the storage 32, but the technology of this disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, the specific processing program 56 may be stored in a portable, computer-readable, non-temporary storage medium such as a USB (Universal Serial Bus) memory. The specific processing program 56 stored in the non-temporary storage medium is installed in the computer 22 of the data processing device 12. The processor 28 executes specific processing according to the specific processing program 56.

[0184] Alternatively, the specific processing program 56 may be stored in a storage device such as a server connected to the data processing device 12 via the network 54, and the specific processing program 56 may be downloaded and installed on the computer 22 in response to a request from the data processing device 12.

[0185] Furthermore, it is not necessary to store the entirety of the specific processing program 56 in a storage device such as a server connected to the data processing device 12 via the network 54, or to store the entirety of the specific processing program 56 in the storage 32; it is acceptable to store only a portion of the specific processing program 56.

[0186] The following types of processors can be used as hardware resources to perform specific processing. Examples of processors include a CPU, a general-purpose processor that functions as a hardware resource to perform specific processing by executing software, i.e., a program. Other examples of processors include dedicated electrical circuits, such as FPGAs (Field-Programmable Gate Arrays), PLDs (Programmable Logic Devices), or ASICs (Application Specific Integrated Circuits), which have circuit configurations specifically designed to perform specific processing. All of these processors have built-in or connected memory, and all of them perform specific processing by using memory.

[0187] The hardware resource that performs a specific process may consist of one of these various processors, or it may consist of a combination of two or more processors of the same or different types (for example, a combination of multiple FPGAs, or a combination of a CPU and an FPGA). Alternatively, the hardware resource that performs a specific process may consist of a single processor.

[0188] Examples of configurations using a single processor include, firstly, a configuration in which one or more CPUs and software are combined to form a single processor, and this processor functions as a hardware resource that performs a specific process. Secondly, there is a configuration using a processor that realizes the functions of the entire system, including multiple hardware resources that perform a specific process, on a single IC chip, as exemplified by SoCs (System-on-a-chip). In this way, a specific process is realized using one or more of the above types of processors as hardware resources.

[0189] Furthermore, the hardware structure of these various processors can more specifically utilize electrical circuits that combine circuit elements such as semiconductor devices. Also, the specific processing described above is merely an example. Therefore, it goes without saying that unnecessary steps can be deleted, new steps added, or the processing order rearranged, as long as it does not deviate from the main purpose.

[0190] Furthermore, although the above-described examples were divided into four embodiments, some or all of these embodiments may be combined. Also, the smart device 14, smart glasses 214, headset terminal 314, and robot 414 are just examples, and they may be combined, or other devices may be used. Also, although the above-described examples were divided into two embodiments, Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, these may be combined.

Furthermore, in order to avoid confusion and facilitate understanding of the technical aspects of this disclosure, explanations of common technical knowledge and other things that do not require special explanation to enable the implementation of the technical aspects of this disclosure have been omitted from the descriptions and illustrations presented above.
